The Yellow reyer at Key ,

KEY WEST, Fla, June 1I-Only one new
case Of yellow fever was reported yester-
day. There have been no deaths in the
last twenty-four hours. One patient has
been discharged from the hospital, the
first since its esta blishment. The Daily
Equator will have the following editorial
article tomorrow, headed "Frightful
Mortality" n
To-day is the twenty-selSnd of our
fever, and liz all we have had twenty-five
cases out Of a population Of 5000, and
eight deaths. This is not quite four
tenths of death per day. We tried to
make it four-tenths on account of those
long-visaged chaps who glory in sensa-
tionaI news, but it would only pan out
thirtY-eight hundredths Of one-death.
Now, is not this Notwithstanding to
make ones blood run cold to contemplate,
to scare q city, to terrorize State and
brighten Nation, and worse than all, to
get the secretary of the Key West Board
Of Health, and a graduate Of the time
honored medical institution of Charles

struck you how ridiculous this all
appears when brought down to cool,
calculating figuresl There is a little fever,
but not so bad as painted, and it is rapid
ly yielding to treatment and sanitation.
Only one case to-day, none yesterday and
no deaths. Key West Is all right and
there is less danger of sickness here to-
day than in any other Florida town, and
figures prove it.''
